Hapo mwanzo Mungu aliumba mbingu na dunia. Wakati huu dunia ilikuwa haina umbo, tena ilikuwa tupu. Giza lilikuwa juu ya vilindi vya maji, naye Roho wa Mungu alikuwa ametulia juu ya maji.

Mungu akasema, “Iwepo nuru,” nayo nuru ikawepo. Mungu akaona ya kuwa nuru ni njema; ndipo Mungu akatenganisha nuru na giza. Mungu akaiita nuru “mchana”, na giza akaliita “usiku”. Ikawa jioni, ikawa asubuhi, siku ya kwanza.

Mungu akasema, “Iwepo nafasi kati ya maji, igawe maji na maji.” Kwa hiyo Mungu akafanya nafasi, akatenganisha maji yaliyo chini ya hiyo nafasi na maji yaliyo juu yake. Ikawa hivyo. Mungu akaiita hiyo nafasi “anga”. Ikawa jioni, ikawa asubuhi, siku ya pili.

Mungu akasema, “Maji yaliyopo chini ya anga na yakusanyike mahali pamoja, pawepo na nchi kavu.” Ikawa hivyo. Mungu akaiita nchi kavu “ardhi”, nalo lile kusanyiko la maji akaliita “bahari.” Mungu akaona kuwa ni vyema.
Kisha Mungu akasema, “Ardhi na itoe mimea: miche itoayo mbegu, miti juu ya nchi itoayo matunda yenye mbegu ndani yake, kila mmea kulingana na aina zake mbalimbali.” Ikawa hivyo. Ardhi ikachipua mimea: Mimea itoayo mbegu kulingana na aina zake, na miti itoayo matunda yenye mbegu kulingana na aina zake. Mungu akaona ya kuwa hili ni jema. Ikawa jioni, ikawa asubuhi, siku ya tatu.

Mungu akasema, “Iwepo mianga kwenye nafasi ya anga ili itenganishe usiku na mchana, nayo iwe alama ya kutambulisha majira mbalimbali, siku na miaka, nayo iwe mianga kwenye nafasi ya anga ya kutia nuru juu ya dunia.” Ikawa hivyo. Mungu akafanya mianga miwili mikubwa: mwanga mkubwa utawale mchana, na mwanga mdogo utawale usiku. Pia Mungu akafanya nyota. Mungu akaiweka hiyo mianga katika nafasi ya anga iangaze dunia, itawale usiku na mchana, na ikatenganishe nuru na giza. Mungu akaona kuwa hili ni jema. Ikawa jioni, ikawa asubuhi, siku ya nne.

Mungu akasema, “Kuwepo na viumbe hai tele kwenye maji, nao ndege waruke juu ya dunia katika nafasi ya anga.” Kwa hiyo Mungu akaumba wanyama wakubwa wa baharini na kila kiumbe hai kiendacho majini kulingana na aina zake, na kila ndege mwenye mabawa kulingana na aina yake. Mungu akaona kuwa hili ni jema. Mungu akavibariki, akasema, “Zaeni mwongezeke, mkayajaze maji ya bahari, nao ndege waongezeke katika dunia.” Ikawa jioni, ikawa asubuhi, siku ya tano.

Mungu akasema, “Ardhi na itoe viumbe hai kulingana na aina zake: mifugo, viumbe vinavyotambaa ardhini na wanyama pori, kila kiumbe kulingana na aina yake.” Ikawa hivyo. Mungu akafanya wanyama pori kulingana na aina zake, mifugo kulingana na aina zake, na viumbe vyote vinavyotambaa ardhini kulingana na aina zake. Mungu akaona kuwa hili ni jema.
Ndipo Mungu akasema, “Tufanye mtu kwa mfano wetu, kwa sura yetu, wakatawale samaki wa baharini na ndege wa angani, na mifugo na wanyama pori wote, na dunia yote, na viumbe vyote vinavyotambaa ardhini.”
Kwa hiyo Mungu akamuumba mtu kwa mfano wake mwenyewe,
kwa mfano wa Mungu alimuumba;
mwanaume na mwanamke aliwaumba.
Mungu akawabariki na akawaambia, “Zaeni na mkaongezeke, mkaijaze dunia na kuitiisha. Mkatawale samaki wa baharini, ndege wa angani, na kila kiumbe hai kiendacho juu ya ardhi.”
Kisha Mungu akasema, “Nimewapa kila mche utoao mbegu juu ya uso wa dunia yote, na kila mti wenye matunda yenye mbegu ndani yake. Vitakuwa chakula chenu. Nao wanyama wote wa nchi, ndege wote wa angani, na viumbe vyote viendavyo juu ya ardhi: yaani kila kiumbe chenye pumzi ya uhai, ninawapa kila mche wa kijani kuwa chakula.” Ikawa hivyo.
Mungu akaona vyote alivyoumba, na tazama, vilikuwa vizuri sana. Ikawa jioni, ikawa asubuhi, siku ya sita.
